Discover EDM

With virtually no foreign material exclusion (FME), discover how this non-contact machining is ideal for hot tap modifications. Discover how this technology works for boat sampling, coring, and complex geometry cuts. Discover how EDM is portable, works underwater and in tight quarters, and goes through the hardest welds. Discover how EDM Zap can use this high accuracy and repeatable technology to work for you.

EDM Zap is the leading provider of EDM equipment and services to the energy industry in North America and abroad. EDM Zap technology is particularly well suited to the unique needs of the industry. Primary among this technology is the ability to cut remotely at great distance. Whether the work is at the top of a wind turbine or deep underwater EDM Zap can provide cutting technology to achieve results not possible with any other cutting process.

EDM Zap equipment can cut the hardest metals with ease. In hot-tapping applications cuts can be made with virtually no foreign material exclusion (FME). The material being cut is disintegrated into microscopic particles that are easily collected. EDM cutting is non-contact and generates very few cutting forces. Compact cutting head designs can work in tight quarters and achieve exacting results.

EDM Zap also can help design and manufacture cutting heads and other items specific to the Energy industry.

The EDM Zap Advantage E-Series power supply was specifically designed for the energy industry. It is primarily used at nuclear plants to hot tap modifications.

The compact lightweight design allows for the equipment to be positioned where you need it. Compact design can easily fit in hallways, elevators, small rooms, and can even be carried up stairs. In addition, built in lift points and tie downs make transporting to the job site easy.

The Advantage control has one of the most sophisticated arc protection systems ever designed. The control employs an adaptive technology to maintain an aggressive cutting level, while intervening as needed to produce a high level of protection. Additional safeguards protect the cut such as the ability to automatically maintain safe Off-Time ratios, even when manually changed by an operator.

Remote operation with a secure fiber optic interface cable out to 2 KM. Ideal for operations in containment areas or challenging locations.
